Artichoke Spinach Pasta Sauce image

A yummy dish I came up with over a batch of spinach artichoke dip. Serve over hot pasta immediately with French bread. If you prefer a pasta sauce that is not so chunky, process artichokes in food processor. Instead of a 1/2 cup of water use 1 cup water or add a second jar of Alfredo sauce.
